It’s interesting to know...
GOOGLE
Googol (n) (1940) the word supposedly coined by 9-year-old nephew of a mathematician, when asked for an enormous number.
Google (v) “to search on the Google search engine” (2000), do a google on was used by 1999.
Googling the one you (might) love is fairly common among the young, professional and Internet savvy.
Using google to scope out a new boyfriend or girlfriend - which has also been called Google dating and interpersonal espionage - took off after a lengthy article on the practice appeared in the January 15, 2001 issue of the New York Observer. However, the honor of the first print citation goes to the Telegraph-Herald, which published a story just the day before (see the earliest citation, above).
Note, too, some people claim you can only use the verb google to refer to a Google search. That makes sense, but how people use language often isn't sen­sible (how dull that would be!). Google is being used in a more general way. For example, one person told me that their daughter said she was “googling for her other sock”.
Googlejuice, n.
The presumed quality inherent in a Web site that enables it to appear at or near the top of search engine results, particularly those of the Google search engine.
Ungoogleable
n. A person for whom no information appears in an Internet search engine, particularly Google. - adj. Also: unGoogleable, ungooglable, unGoogle-able.
